SUPPLEMENT EAST CLACKAMAS NEW S, SEPTEMBER 25, 1919 EPISCOPALIANS PLAN BIG WORK To Take Steps for Social Re construction and Indus trial Peace To reconcile the conflicting; elements of capital and iabor included in the membership of the Episcopal Church as a first step toward nation wide so cial reconstruction and industrial peace, is one of the striking featu es of a- tentative alter-the-war program which influential forces in the Epis- copal Church have just completed. The plan was made public yesterday in New York by the Nation-Wide Cam paign of the Church. It is felt that the democracy of the church offers ideal ground upon which » mployei and em ploye may meet and adjust their dif ferences; and the measure of success attending this effort theieafter may stand as an example for general appli cation. The practical details of the plan have not yet been fully worked out; hut included in its scope are sugges tions for the establishment in the church parishes of social study classes where such problems as child welfare, hours of employment of women, con ditions of labor and industry, health insurance, the treatment of prisoners, the insane, feeble-minded, informed upon pending issues and be able intel ligently to exercise their influence as citizens upon s h legislation as may be proposed to remedy existing evils. In connection with this plan, also, it is proposed that, under the auspices of the Joint Commission of Social Serv ice of the Church there shall be. col- ceriain industrial plants in the country, such data and the results of the plan worked out should be placed in the hands of our church members who have part in or are interested in the man agement of big industrial concerns, so that the information rtiay be as widely distributed as possible.” Through these methods, it is pointed out, "the church may be definitely re lated to the problems of reconstruc tion;” and, it is added, "certainly there can be no objection to the church using her offices for the purpose of giving in formation regarding a particularly suc cessful venture in the way of improv ing conditions of labor and the rela tionship between labor and capital.” Another tentative suggestion is that the Episcopal Church interest itself in the campaign against 1. W. W. propa ganda by sending tiained workers into the great logging camps of the North west. "The point of contact with the men, ’ says the draft, “ might be the holding of open forums for the discussion of such questions as to whether the I. W. W. program is the best that can be sug gested, what other ways there are of solving the problem which society faces. We surely have no right to pro test against the propaganda of the 1. W. W. principles unless we are willing to do our share in the propaganda of a broader and better vision of what constitutes social justice and right eousness for all men.” This program, which was prepared by the Rev. Augustiua Klmendorf, who represents the Joint Commission on Social Service of the Episcopal Church on the executive committee of the church's nat.on-wide campaign, repre sents one of the forward steps for which encouiagement is sought through the Every Name and Nation-Wide Campaigns in which the Joint Commis sion of Social Service, the General Hoard of Religious Education, tho Hoard of Missions and all the other agencies of the church are for the first time united in a nation-wide effort to muster all of Us resarces for national service. Tortoise Days. According to Captain Ogilvle of the British army, who lectured recently In London on the subject of Mace donia. the animal which is to lie found in more parts of the country than any other is. perhaps, the tortoise. In tin* British isles the creature is seen so rarely in its native hedge or crawling about the orchard that the instan taneous popularity of tlie* animal—ac cording to the captain— with the Brit ish Tommy on the Macedonian front need not he doubted. Tommy, in fact, found that, like Mark Twain's lump ing frog, it had many points of fasci nation and formed an endless source of amusement. The soldiers fluidly hit upon tin* idea of forwarding tin* strange pets through the mails to "tie- folks at home.” So many of the tor L E W I S B.
